this show is losing a lot of cred with some of the awful singers that are getting through based on their teen good looks.
I liked the blind auditions….although these may have been rigged to some point too.

The way to enjoy it is to watch the twitter stream #thevoiceau – so many smartarses ripping the judges new ones and some real quick wit – makes the show into quite a good laugh actually…

The Voice is quite embarrassing actually. unlike other singing shows like xfactor, american idol, agt the judges do not critique the singers in anyway except for Seal. The singing is woeful and last night was shocking. all the songs were sleepy, mild songs. no build up, no big finish. how long is this going to go for?why is joel madden always with a toothpick in his mouth?

Not sure which The Voice you are watching but the one on Channel Nine is a bloody good view.
And to the commenters above … and to paraphrase Kamahl … why are people so unkind? If those singers are so awful get off your fat arses, get yourself down to an audition, and show Australia how it’s done. Otherwise, just STFU.

Is there a year on year ratings count for TV (like papers and magazines), because im getting a very strong feeling that like Newspapers… TV is Dead.
We are constantly informed that shows are running lower than previous years, are the viewers going elsewhere on TV… or is that insidious, evil interweb and its tubes stealing more eyeballs?

Sure is Offal Spokesperson. For Jan 1 – May 29 2012 is up 0.9% (All People All Day All TV) on Jan 1 – May 29 2011 for Metropolitan TV.
Your strong feeling is clearly not borne out by the total market.
What IS happening is that this viewing is being spread across more and more stations and programmes, so that individual programmes are getting reduced audiences, but when you accumulate all the TV audiences the total is increasing.
As digitisation affects more and more media this phenomenon will be more pervasive, and nowhere more than ‘the interweb’.
